Message:
God, please help me to seek Your wisdom above all things. Please show me how to go about gaining Your wisdom. And please help me learn to live by that wisdom. Amen.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, I come before You with a heart open and eager to receive Your wisdom. In a world filled with distractions and conflicting voices, I seek Your clarity and understanding to guide me through the myriad of decisions I face each day. Your word reminds us that wisdom begins with the fear of You, and my desire is to honor You in every aspect of my life. Instill in me a deep yearning to pursue knowledge not for my own gain, but to serve others and bring glory to Your name.
As I embark on this journey of seeking wisdom, I ask for Your guidance in knowing how to discern between worldly advice and the truths revealed through Your spirit. Help me to recognize the wise counsel that builds up and nurtures, contrasting it with opinions that may steer me away from Your path. May I be sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit, allowing Your voice to be the loudest among the clamor of opinions around me.
Lord, grant me patience as I await Your revelation. Teach me that wisdom often requires time and reflection. Make me diligent in studying Your word, for it is the source of true wisdom. As I delve into Scripture, open my eyes to the lessons within; let them become etched in my heart. Also, surround me with those who exhibit wisdom in their lives—individuals who reflect Your love and humility, that I may learn from their examples.
Father, I ask that You strengthen my resolve to apply what I learn. It is one thing to know wisdom, but it is another to embody it in my actions. Help me to practice what I learn daily, to embrace integrity and kindness in all encounters. As I navigate life’s challenges, may Your wisdom shine through me, giving opportunity to share Your love and grace with others.
I place my trust in You, believing that as I seek Your wisdom, You will provide. Prepare my heart for the lessons you will teach and the growth I will experience. Let my life be a testament to the transformative power of Your guidance and understanding. In all things, I desire to reflect Your goodness and walk in the path You have set before me. Thank You, Lord, for hearing my prayer. In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.
Jackie
